What planet is this from? You might wonder. Well, the story behind this is actually pretty tragic...

Soeur Sourire or "The Singing Nun" in English, was a musically gifted um, Nun, who scored a hit with her song Dominique (here is what it actually sounds like http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qUzY-W2klT4&feature=related).

Now I think from what I've gathered from random sources (take it all with a pinch of salt) the story goes something like this...

After the success of her first record, she donated all of her earnings to her convent, but the convent never paid tax on all those earnings. The convent/her producer (don't know which source to trust), for some reason, forbid her to use the name Soeur Sourire or any translation of the name as they owned the rights. Eventually the Belgian government came knocking on her door claiming she owed a MINT in taxes. She countered with claiming she was not responsible for any of it as she had donated it all to her convent and therefore they were responsible for it, but alas she had no receipts to prove this.

Long story short, this techno version of her first hit was a last ditch attempt at trying earn money to repay her debt before commiting suicide at the age of 51.

Damn..
